I was digging through my stash of polish and I found this old gem! I’ve had it forever, but I guess I forgot about it. It’s from a special AVON collection called Rainbow Nail Enamel and the shade is named Rainbow Silver.
I’m realizing that AVON may have been ahead of their time with this one! I think this polish is from 2003. AVON calls this a rainbow shade….but by today’s standards it would be considered a holographic. I think it’s pretty cool that they carried holos 10 yrs ago! I was under the impression that the holo craze was more of a recent trend…within the last few years or so? If anyone knows when holographics hit the market, please let me know. Cuz now I’m curious!
Wish I bought more of these back when AVON carried them!
LOVEEEEEEEE
I really love it 🙂 Great post ! Thank you for sharing !
Perhaps not holographic, as such, but in the 1970’s Rimmel made two polishes which changed colours with the light. One was called Moonlight and was sort of blue and I can’t remember the name of the sort of pink one.
Both polishes resembled mother-of-pearl and the Moonlight one was a firm favourite of mine as I grew up. I’m not sure when Rimmel started making them, could have been 1960’s or before and the Moonlight one was still available in the late 1980’s but I couldn’t tell you what happened to it after that.
I absolutely love your blog by the way.
